Night Sky/Northern Lights Photography Workshop

Saturday, December 4 - 6:30pm -8:30pm

The purpose of this workshop is to educate people on how to capture the beauty of the northern lights and the night sky on camera. Topics being covered include equipment needed, camera settings, and the best locations for viewing. This workshop will start out with a brief powerpoint presentation (in the conference room), and then we will go outside for hands-on experience — taking pictures of the night time sky (hopefully northern lights) around the Lodge property - weather depending.

About the Instructor: Nate Bett

Nathan Bett is a photographer and educator in Hancock Michigan. Although originally from Marquette, Michigan, Nathan recently relocated to Hancock from New York City, where he taught at the City University Of New York, and represented a major camera manufacturer as a technical specialist in photography. He now spends his time indulging in the over abundance of natural beauty in his native UP and spending excesses of time outdoors with his family. Nathan maintains a passion for photography and the outdoors that he delights in sharing with students. His work can be viewed at nathanbett.com and @natebett and @artmonstermedia on Instagram.

The Keweenaw Mountain Lodge offers the free use of a telescope through our stargazer program. If you are staying at the Lodge you can check out a telescope for no additional charge. Just stop in the OAC or call (906) 289-4403 to reserve.

As the snow starts to fly autumn will soon be a distant memory. In a recent blog post on our website we look back to the Fall Color Photo Workshop that took place October 8-10. Here is an excerpt from the blog post:

“Bad weather makes good photography,” is one of Ansel Adam’s more memorable quotes and one of the guidelines that we followed for the Keweenaw Mountain Lodge’s first annual Fall Color Photo Workshop.

The idea for the workshop came together in September after the August Night Sky Photography workshop. The vision was for a team of photographers associated with the Keweenaw Mountain Lodge (KML) to put together a multi day photography workshop centered around the color season in late September – early October — a time of year that the Keweenaw is well-known to exhibit its beauty.”

To read how the workshop went that weekend please check out our blog section under the about drop down on our website.
